Title: Senior Technical Presales EngineerLocation: PAN India (Remote)Experience: 5+ years technical presales experience along with experience and exposure to cybersecurity and AI productsABOUT KAPALINS:Kapalins builds an AI-native security and governance platform for enterprises adopting generative AI: managing AI risk, model and data exposure, governance and compliance across LLMs, copilots and agentic systems.Enterprises in India are deploying GenAI far faster than they are governing it. Security and risk teams are being asked to sign off on systems they cannot see. That gap is our market, and it is opening now.THE ROLE:We're looking for a Pre-Sales Engineer who can translate the technical depth of our platform into a compelling, credible story for CISOs, CTOs, and security architects — and prove it live. You'll be the technical voice in the room alongside our sales team: running demos, answering the hard architecture and threat-model questions, and helping prospects see exactly how Kapālins secures their AI estate.This is not a scripted-demo role. You need to genuinely understand LLM security, agentic AI risk, and enterprise compliance well enough to improvise under technical questioning from senior security buyers.WHAT YOU WILL OWN:Deliver technical product demonstrations of the Kapālins platform — AI Trust Index, Proxy/Probe/Connector observation modes, LLM Hardening, Policy Shield, and Compliance Shield — tailored to each prospect's AI estate and threat modelPartner with Sales on discovery calls to understand a prospect's AI/LLM footprint (models, copilots, agents)

agentic AI riskFamiliarity with security frameworks relevant to AI: OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS, NIST AI RMF — and ideally exposure to regulatory frameworks like DPDP, APRA CPS 234/230, or ISO 42001Demonstrated ability to explain complex technical concepts to a non-technical or executive audience, and to hold your own with a highly technical one (CISO/security architect level)Comfort running live product demonstrations and improvising through unscripted technical questionsSTRONGLY PREFERRED:Prior pre-sales/sales engineering experience at a cybersecurity or AI security product companyHands-on familiarity with LLM APIs and platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Vertex AI) or enterprise copilots (Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot)Experience with API integrations, gateways/proxies, or SIEM/XDR ecosystemsPrior experience supporting RFPs, security questionnaires, or compliance evidence packagesStartup or quick-scaling product-company experience, comfortable with ambiguity and a fast-evolving productWHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:Prospects leave every demo with a clear, credible understanding of how Kapālins governs their specific AI estate.Technical objections in the sales cycle get resolved fast and accurately, shortening deal cycles.PoCs convert at a high rate because the technical story lands cleanly with security buyers.HOW TO APPLY:Apply through LinkedIn OR you can also write to with the subject line: Senior Technical Presales Engineer | [Your Name]Know more: www.kapalins.comKapalins is an equal opportunity employer.
